Labyrinths and "alternative" medicine

Radford, B.

Abstract: A by-product of the New Age movement, labyrinths are achieving a height of popularity. While many adherents use the mazelike patterns as merely meditation tools, others claim therapeutic and medical benefits. Despite absence of evidence of labyrinth medical effectiveness, labyrinths have been integrated into dozens of hospital and medical care facilities. Though generally harmless, labyrinth use can lead to delusions and hallucinations, and provides no benefit beyond that of meditation.
